6747 OLD RANCH RD

Attention horse lovers! This beautifully updated 5-bedroom, 4-bath home on 6.5 private acres is a dream for equestrians and nature lovers alike. Nestled east of Sarasota and bordering Myakka River State Park, this property offers total privacy with no neighbors behind, just serene nature views. Step inside to a versatile, open floor plan with vaulted ceilings for a dramatic touch. Tile flooring runs through the main living areas, complemented by a gas white washed brick fireplace and elegant crown and wall molding. The beautifully updated kitchen features a large granite island/breakfast bar, brick backsplash, new stainless steel appliances, and a gas stove. Two sets of French doors, plus a new impact sliding glass door open onto a sprawling back porch, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the peaceful setting. The current owner uses an alcove off the living room as an office with built-in cabinetry, but it could easily serve as a formal dining room. The spacious primary suite features a custom built-in dresser and bath with a huge walk-in shower and granite countertops. Three bedrooms are on the main floor, while two upstairs share a updated bath featuring pebble type flooring in the bath and shower. Equestrians will love the 72’X36’ horse barn with 10 stalls, plus two pastures and an arena, all fenced and cross-fences. This property is zoned for horses but welcome all your farm animals-cows, goats, pigs, chickens and more! Need space for your hobbies? There’s a two-car garage on the main level plus an additional lower-level garage/workshop for extra vehicles or recreational toys. The current owner has made many recent improvements including new fence, electronic front gate, roof spray with 20 year no leak warranty, Apex plumbing with brass fittings, electrical panel, 2 sliders, 3 windows(impact), Ecobee Smart thermostats, and much more. Whether you’re looking for an equestrian paradise, event venue, or private retreat, this property offers endless possibilities.
